Free groceries at Safeway
xn--vcsx75gvhj1xc.comThen the 2nd offer is purchase 10 Pepsi, Lays or Tostito products, get a coupon immediately redeemable for a $25 gift card. Take the 1st offer x 2, adding 2 bags of Tostitoes and you have 10 products so you get the $25 gift card. Net effect is you've spent $25, but get $25 so you can say 8 12 pks, 2 cases of water and 2 bags of chips were free or your next $25 of groceries (if you chose the $25 Safeway gift card as there are many options on gc)!
Limit of one $25 card per Safeway card, but nothing to stop you from having numerous Safeway cards!^:p
I went to my local Herndon Safeway this morning
(the one on Elden Street, near Herndon Parkway)
and things got complicated
i bought 8 12 packs of pepsi products and 2 bags of tostitos
at checkout
i got credited for 4 of the 8 12 packs of pepsi and the 2 cases of water
i asked about my $25 gift card
the clerk said it wasnt eligible because that would need to be a separate transaction
i told him to check again and ask the manager
so after a 5 minute conversation between those 2
i get a $25 credit applied to my bill
so my total is $2 and change, so i'm happy
the clerk hands me the receipt and the coupon that has been printed and i walk out.
as i'm loading stuff into my car
I look at the coupon, and the coupon says, redeem at any safeway for a $25 gift card, exp 6/30/07
so i guess the clerk was wrong after all
My thoughts exactly.
As for using 2 to get an AA GC, my coupon rang up as a $25 off coupon I think, so you could probably use one to get a $50 gc for $25, or possibly use 2 for one transaction.
If I had anywhereto store this much soda, I'd try it a few more times.

This is dejavu!
Pretty much the same thing happened to me at the same store!!
In the Bay Area, instead of $25, the offer is 2 baseball tickets.
My voucher didnt automatically print, but after going to customer service, I got my $25 gift card. =D
And... they were out of Refreshe water, so I got Aquafina instead.
Don't see the buy 2 get 2 offer on Pepsi,
but just buy 10 bags of Tostitos or Lays chips at $2.50,
get $25 card....
The Pepsi buy 2 get 2 free + 1 free Refreshe water is good in Austin. (It's on the weekly ad, 1st page.) The buy-2-get-2-free red tags are all over the Pepsi aile. If you only want the $25 GC, go ahead and buy 8 Pepsi ($5.49X4), 2 chips ($5), you will also get two 24-pack Refreshe water on the side for free.
If you want to combine $25 GC with Summer Savers (extra $10 coupon for every $30 spent), you may either:
1. Spend $30: buy 12 Tostitos/Lays chips. Or,
2. Spend $30.38: buy 10 Tostotos/Lays chips ($25) + 2 Safeway Salsa-24oz ($2.69X2)
Since Tostitos/Lays and 24-oz Safeway Salsa are participating items in Summer Savers, you will get two catalina coupons ($25 GC & $10 Summer Savers) and end up making some profits. :) Tomorrow is the last day though.
Of course, you can keep buying 10 bags of chips, get a $25 GC, use that to buy 10 more bags of chips, lather, rinse, and repeat.
This is an awesome deal.
Oh, OK. I guess I was overgeneralizing. :o (I have nothing in particular against Safeway -- there's a 24-hour one just a block from my house and it's very handy -- but more competition here would be good.)
I will try it today, at my local Safeway here in Colorado.
So, even if you get the 2 packs free of the soda, it counts toward the 10 pepsi products?
Yes, because they ring them both up and then deduct the price of the free one.
I haven't seen that. Today, in Scotts Valley (Santa Cruz County), I did get a $40 Safeway Card for subscribing to the San Jose Mercury News. Cancel after 2 months and get a refund.
Actually, not true.
A lot of the "deals" posted here on FT are found on FatWallet and similar sites: www.fatwallet.com
In fact, those "other" sites are really, in general, a much better source for these non-travel, non-miles, non-points-related "deals." @:-)
Could always use the extra PEPSI! :)
There is a place on the website to enter your zip code and see in store offers for your area. I do wish this one was in my area, Santa Cruz county.
AFAIK, any Safeway gift card can be used to purchase groceries and/or other retailers' gift cards, anyhow.
So "since they're neighbors," they don't need to offer $25 bonuses, I guess. @:-)

Then have a chip party.

In Washington, DC (Safeway Eastern Division), we have exactly the same two offers. As stated above, you are not limited to a Safeway gift card -- it's ANY gift card from the gift card mall, including a Visa or American Express gift card! :)
